The Loons "I Wanna Get You"

The Loons - Another Life short film

During a remarkable period of "welcome back, jerks" - I admit I wasn't feeling it anymore - I listened to and (re)discovered garage bands full of soul and blood, with, as a rule, the most diverse influences from beat to punk, from psychedelia to R&B - from power pop to folk, from rockabilly to mod, including soul and even hard rock. In short, the essence of rock 'n' roll by true beasts with the wild scream of "screw your virtuosic and lightning-fast scales and your four octaves of fucking vocal range." Since 1990 onward, with a few revivals of old fossils, savansadir.

MIKE STAX, by the way, and what the hell. How can you describe this Noble in just a few lines?! A true fetishist lunatic. Crawdaddys and Tell-Tale Hearts would be enough to last generations. His latest band, The Loons, is a concentration of everything. Four albums so far in the new millennium (maybe the first one from '99, but it doesn't change much). A distillation of all previous experiences. Here’s a Classic Garage track and a power pop ride steeped in lysergic acid. Today we spend it with them… tomorrow, I don't know.
